Dream of Alligators

 11/17/2022

I had a dream that I was in water and all of a sudden I looked around and there was alligators. I knew we were in Florida. That's the only time we have ever been in the water with an alligator was in Weeki Wachi. When I first got in the water in the dream there were no alligators. I wasn't scared though, just cautious. At the end of the dream, I was standing next to Drew and a woman was in front of us. I had mixed feelings towards this woman. It hurt to be in her presence. With her back turned to us she said I wanted to talk about that time we made love. She was looking down when she said it. This is a sign of shame. Drew didn't do anything, he just kept standing there. Right after she said that, I stopped her and stepped about two feet away from Drew to the left. I said, "Don't call it that, that's like a knife in my heart." Then I woke up. 


Information from a website I found about dreams:

However, if you dream of an infidelity from your husband, it does indicate specific relationship problems. Dreaming that your husband is cheating on you means that you feel insecure, either because you have self-esteem problems or because your relationship is faltering and you don’t know how to stabilize it. 

Surely you lack communication; surely you sense that your husband is not comfortable in the relationship and that is why your subconscious has placed a lover.

This dream mustn’t make you set up a scene of jealousy because relationship problems do not mean that your husband is cheating on you. Few dreams are premonitions, but their function is to make you reflect on those aspects that you know within yourself but that you do not dare to recognize. Don’t be afraid and face the problem face to face.

The reason why you dream that your husband is unfaithful is because you feel distant. After all, you have distanced yourself in recent times. Try to talk to him and show him that relationship crisis that he may not want to see either. Remember that emergencies can become opportunities to guide the relationship, nor do they always end in a romantic breakdown.

What it does mean is that there is some distance between the two of you; that there are things that you want to fix,  and that is why you are projecting it towards a dream, because it lives there: in your unconscious. 

What can you do if there is distance between you? It’s effortless, work on it! If you have something to say to your partner, ask them to talk and to come to an agreement so that there is no such distance between you. Here the key is for communication to flow, if they carry out these actions, you will realize that the dreams that your partner is unfaithful will decrease significantly, assured!

The problem is because we feel that we are not receiving the necessary time, attention, or care. This is why the dream appears so frequently.

Even in the healthiest relationships, this type of situation occurs because we do not feel comfortable and the way we find to signify it is through a third party, who appears on the scene to remind us of our fears and anxieties. But ultimately they are not premonitory dreams, according to experts.

The positive side of the study is that this type of dream could set off alarms and open the door to dialogue, not to claim imaginary infidelity, but as an excuse to communicate and manifest unconscious discomfort. In this way, deception can, paradoxically, save our relationship.

Biblical Meaning Of Dreaming Of An Alligator

Dreaming about an alligator denotes a potentially dangerous circumstance in your life. 

The Bible implies that these dreams put your safety in danger. You are in danger, whether it is for your work, friendship, or health. It serves as a signal that something significant in your life is in jeopardy.  

A fear you experience might also be represented by an alligator. If you see an alligator, it can be a sign that you need to work harder at facing your anxieties or talk to someone about your issues.

In biblical interpretations of dreams, the alligator also stands for deceit and corruption.

Dream Of Watching An Alligator

Not all alligator-related dreams involve interaction with them. If you see a reptile in your dream, it can be telling you to see things from a different angle.

Your waking self should attempt to observe its inner thoughts and sensations in the same way that your dream self does.

When something bothers you, try to stand back and write out your own feelings and thoughts. How may shifting your perspective on things make you feel happy and more in control?

Dream Of An Alligator In The Water

Water is a symbol of the psyche. Therefore, an alligator in the water might stand in for the ideas and emotions that are stored in your subconscious.

Were you concerned that the alligator would attack you in your dream by emerging from the water? If that’s the case, you might be concerned about what might happen if you express your actual feelings.

Maybe you’re telling yourself to act “rationally” because you are irritated about something. Your dream might be trying to remind you that it’s crucial to be open and honest with yourself about your emotions.

Another scenario is that you’re anxious about starting a new endeavor or concept. You feel more at ease keeping it submerged in water. You think that by doing this, you’re protecting yourself from the possibility that it won’t work. However, you’re also denying yourself the opportunity to achieve.

Dream Of A Calm Alligator

A calm crocodile in your dream is typically seen as being quite ominous. Everything you do is deliberate because you are skilled at controlling your own inner thoughts and feelings. This signifies that you are in the finest position to start a new project or business.

Similar to this, having an alligator dream indicates that you are prepared to let go of unfavorable feelings. This could entail, for instance, resolving your differences with a person you’ve been at odds with.

After I read these two posts from two different websites, I got some interpretation. I also prayed before going to each website. Once I started reading the alligator website, it talked about stored emotions. That's what I feel like I do. I store them but I don't deal with them. I was concerned that the alligator would attack me in the dream and that's why I was being so cautious in the dream. I was watching it. The alligator dream website said that might mean you are afraid of being attacked when you share your emotions. I have been in the past and that is a fear of mine. The article said maybe you are telling yourself to act "rationally", which I was acting rationally in the dream, because you're irritated about something. It also said to that it's important to be open and honest with myself about my emotions. I haven't acted rationally lately. Especially when Drew shared his emotions with me. Acting rationally is something I have been praying about even with the kids. Self control basically, that's what I have been praying for. To be rational means to expect a reasonable explanation. In the dream when we were all standing together and she started talking, in the back of my mind, I knew there was a reason for the one time they made love. It's like she didn't want to but he did. Then the article went on to talk about the calm alligator and how it can control it's inner thoughts and feelings. It also said that you are prepared to let go of unfavorable feelings. You are ready to resolve your differences with a person. Yesterday afternoon I was thinking about how I need to quit reading into things and assuming because I cause myself much grief that way. I need to start giving Drew and everyone else around me "The benefit of the doubt" that they are telling me what they mean. Last night I was thinking about how I need to be more direct with my questions. I don't want to be at "odds" with Drew anymore. I want to be in a covenant of peace with him. Yesterday I was thinking about how we are at odds with each other a lot, we need to remember that we aren't fighting against each other. We are supposed to be fighting for each other. The article went on to talk about  how your waking self should attempt to observe its inner thoughts and sensations in the same way that your dream self does. When something bothers you, try to stand back and write out your own feelings and thoughts. How may shifting your perspective on things make you feel happy and more in control? That's what I need to do and that's what I did in the dream. I stood back and put my head down, closed my eyes and put my hand on my head. That's what that symbolizes. Standing back and observing, writing out what I need to. Today's verse of the day goes along with this:

I'll make a covenant of peace with them....I'll make them secure and place My Qodesh place of worship at the center of their lives forever. Ezekiel 37:26. 

That's saying He will be the center of our lives, of our thoughts and of everything we do, when we let Him. He makes us secure, which in the dream and lately I haven't felt secure. 

Then I went to the article about a husband cheating in a dream. The article said that can you feel insecure in your relationship and it's faltering and you don't know how to fix it. That explains exactly how I feel. I don't know how to fix certain areas in our relationship and family relationship as far as communication and intimacy. The article said surely you lack communication and sense your husband's not comfortable in the relationship. I have sensed those things for a while. I have been sensing it a lot the past few weeks. The article went on to say that this dream could mean that I need to reflect more on the aspects of myself that I don't dare to recognize. I can relate to that alot. In the dream, after she said what she said, I physically took two steps away from Drew. The article says that dreaming your husband cheated could mean you feel there is distance between the two of you and that you may have distanced yourself in the past in a way. When I read that, I got the interpretation of me stepping away. IT meant that I feel the distance in our relationship and also that in the past I created the distance. I stepped away. This lives in my subconscious, the need to want to fix the distance. The article talks about fixing it by asking your partner to talk so you can come to an agreement. Candice and Matt did that a couple of weeks ago. They sat down and made a list of eachother's expectations for eachother. What their needs were so there was no miscommunication about what the other expected and needed. 

The problem is because we feel that we are not receiving the necessary time, attention, or care. This is how I have felt. It also talks about the positive side of this. It can set off alarm bells and start conversations that need to be had. It said in this way, deception can ultimately save the relationship. The deception being Drew with another woman.
